Ethiopian Kenya

Ethiopian Kenya (1850-) was a state of the Ethiopian Empire. Taken over as a colony by Ethiopia during the Ethiopian-Omani War of 1844-1850, the region became a non-slave state of the Ethiopian Empire.

History
Kenya fell under the influence of Oman in the 1830s and later became one of its territories; in the Ethiopian-Omani War of 1844-1850, the region was taken over by the Ethiopian Empire. The Ethiopians sent expeditions and built colonies to colonize the region, and on 12 August 1850 the region took up the national patrimony of Ethiopia and became a state, without the extension of slavery.
